That night, when Xu Qiu came out to close the courtyard door, he vaguely saw a figure outside.

He was startled.

After taking a closer look, he realized that this person was very familiar. He walked out and asked, "Gu Chengxiao?"

"What are you doing here so late?"

Gu Chengxiao looked at him: "I'm here to see you, can I have a chat?"

Xu Qiu knew what he wanted to say, it was nothing more than those things during the day.

Both Lin Qiong and Gu Chengxiao are not bad people in the absolute sense, but Lin Qiong is the kind of person who prefers to be praised by others. Under such circumstances, he doesn't mind sharing some benefits.

After all, Gu Chengxiao came from the royal family, and when it was time to use him, he would not be relentless.

For a while, it was probably because he was more valuable, and also, he and Gu Chengxiao did get along relatively well before, and Xu Qiu didn't dislike him at the moment, after all, in the initial setting, the relationship between the two of them was very good. OK, not to that extent these days, but not bad.

"What do you want to say?" Xu Qiu asked.

Gu Chengxiao hesitated for a moment, "You and Lin Qiong, when did your engagement end?"

He had some doubts, whether it was unintentional, before the two of them broke off their engagement, he and Lin Qiong had a mutual affection.

Last time, when Xu Qiu came to look for him, he saw him and Lin Qiong together. At that time, Xu Qiu also said that they had broken off their engagement.At that time, because of the identities of the two people, it was a bit embarrassing to discuss these, so I didn't go on.

Moreover, Xu Qiu's attitude was quite calm, as if he didn't take this marriage to heart, he only said that it was decided by his parents since he was a child, and Lin Qiong never mentioned it in the process of getting along with him. Up to this point, it has always been happy and carefree.

Subconsciously, Gu Chengxiao thought that this was just decided by his parents. The two parties actually didn't care about it, they just had a name. Maybe it was like what he had seen in the capital before. They said they were unmarried couples. Is it the relationship between brothers and friends?Can't produce any ambiguous emotions at all?

In short, they probably didn't pay much attention to this marriage contract.

He knows that many villages don't pay much attention to engagement, and many of them just make a verbal agreement, and there is no formal ceremony.

But all of today's events broke his imagination. From the discussions of the surrounding villagers, it is not difficult to hear that Lin Qiong liked Xu Qiu very much before, and Xu Qiu was not as indifferent to this marriage as he imagined. He didn't care, on the contrary, Lin Qiong seemed to care too much, so much so that when he saw Xu Qiu and Lin Qu together, he wanted to take revenge.

This means that Lin Qiong still loves Xu Qiu?

But it shouldn't be. From Xu Qiu's remarks, he and Lin Qu hadn't spoken to each other at least during the period when he was exiled.And Lin Qiong met him half a month after he was exiled, and several times after that, he could feel that Lin Qiong had a good impression of him.That being the case, how did Lin Qiong misunderstand Xu Qiu?What about the psychology of revenge?

He didn't think Xu Qiu was telling lies, one was unnecessary, and the other was that Lin Qiong didn't refute it.

All this made Gu Chengxiao's heart restless.

He also realized that Lin Qiong had already occupied a part of his heart, but this also made him feel even more ashamed. After all, in his relationship with Xu Qiu, although he was used, Gu Chengxiao was not without a trace of sincerity. .His behavior behind others' backs like this is a bit too much.Furthermore, his self-esteem also made him feel embarrassed by such a thing.

Xu Qiu said: "It was two days before I told you about the termination of the engagement."

Looking at Gu Chengxiao's expression, he said again: "But you don't have to take it too seriously. I really don't like Lin Qiong. I have never had any feelings for him since I was a child. If my mother hadn't discovered his father What my mother said behind my back, I should also propose to dissolve the engagement myself."

After all, he himself knew that Lin Qiong was not the original owner, and the current Lin Qiong only liked Gu Chengxiao from the beginning.

Gu Chengxiao nodded: "I didn't know about you before, but now, it's really my fault."

He apologized.

"It's fine, I don't care about these." Xu Qiu said: "You can handle your own affairs, and I won't interfere with them."

How to choose in the future is Gu Chengxiao's own business.

It is impossible for him to match up without any grudges, nor is it possible for him to play tricks to break up these two people.

He knew in his heart that the reason why Lin Qiong did this today was probably a misunderstanding. After all, he told Lin Qu in the ancestral hall that time, and after he had broken off the engagement, Lin Qu's eyes were quite obvious.Every time I see him, my eyes turn around him.

But he also didn't expect that a month had passed, and Lin Qiong's parents hadn't told Lin Qiong that the engagement had been broken.

And how on earth did Lin Qiong manage to get along with Gu Chengxiao and at the same time dislike him and Lin Qu?

Could it be because he didn't like Lin Qiong's original owner, so Lin Qiong took revenge on him for the original owner?The original owner Lin Qiong really liked him.

It's just that he doesn't agree with him in every aspect, and his temper is too arrogant.

There is no feeling of heartbeat.

The two big men had nothing to discuss about it, and Gu Chengxiao was still full of questions that Lin Qiong needed to answer, so he talked with Xu Qiu, so naturally he was not in the mood to continue wasting, and the two sides went back separately.

Xu Qiu didn't care about them anymore, what he was thinking about was the marriage between him and Lin Qu, although it would take some time, but in the end it's best to settle it in the near future.

Keep procrastinating, in case Mrs. Lin makes some coquettish operations, it will be bad.

After all, Lin Qu has also reached the age to get married.

……

It was late at night, and at night in Lin's house, in Lin Qu's room, the people on the bed did not sleep soundly.

I saw the boy on the bed with his eyes closed tightly, a lot of sweat dripping from his body, and his expression was full of pain.

Lin Qu was dreaming, he dreamed that he fell into the water.

Endless water poured towards him from all directions, blocking his mouth and nose, and he felt suffocated and painful. Slowly, he seemed to lose consciousness, but also seemed to have entered a mysterious state.

Many images flashed by, he seemed to be chasing and working hard all the time, and then in one of the images, he seemed to be hugging someone and weeping bitterly, and Lin Qu, who was in a dream on the bed, also had tears streaming down his face. Pain filled his heart, and he let out a whimper.This pain lasted for a long time, he seemed to be going crazy, and then one day, he seemed to have found some opportunity, trembling with ecstasy in his heart, returned home to find a knife, and rushed into the boundless darkness.

"Kill you, kill you..."

"Qu Geer, Qu Geer, wake up." A voice came to mind in the empty room.

"Brother, wake up."

"Brother Qu..."

"Go fetch some water."

There were noisy voices in the ear all the time, and then the icy cold feeling spread on the face, which made Lin Qu sigh with satisfaction in his heart.

so comfy.

Mrs. Wang shook her son's body vigorously and kept shouting. After a long time, Lin Qu opened his eyes in a daze: "Mother?"

"Hey, you finally woke up." Wang said with a sigh of relief, "You have a fever. You have been dreaming just now. You were talking in your sleep, and it took you a long time to wake you up."

Lin Qu is feeling uncomfortable now, and he can't remember what dream he had, so he yelled weakly, "Mom, I feel bad."

"Don't be afraid." Mrs. Wang knew that Lin Qu was probably frightened by falling into the water during the day, who fell into the water, it was dark but I, as if I was about to die, wouldn't I be afraid?

It was because they were worried that the child would be scared at night, they deliberately called Lin Qu to sleep with the family tonight.

Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, he was woken up by the movement around him.

She pushed her husband: "You go and ask the old doctor, let him come over and show us Brother Qu." Lin Qu's face was burning red, and her forehead was very hot when she touched it. It's impossible not to take medicine. .

Lin Guangfu thought too, but, "Our money?"

Wang gritted her teeth: "Talk to the old doctor first, and we will get it from my mother tomorrow." If Mrs. Lin couldn't sleep because of Lin Qu's noise in the middle of the night, it would be even more difficult for them to ask for money.

Lin Guangfu sighed, that was the only way to go.

But he also knows in his heart that this money is not easy to ask for.

In fact, they can also invite Xu Qiu, Xu Qiu's medical skills are good, and the distance is close. The Xu family asked to marry Brother Qu, so it is not that troublesome to see a doctor, but after all, it is late at night, and their identities are sensitive, so they have to avoid suspicion. What's more, they were in such a state of embarrassment. Although the whole village knew what kind of virtue their family was, they still didn't want to lose face in front of their son's future husband.

The old doctor came quickly, took Lin Qu's pulse, and prescribed medicine: "Your illness is more convenient now, don't boil medicine in the middle of the night." He took out a porcelain bottle and said, "This is my apprentice's medicine." It is researched, it is specially used to treat wind-cold and fever, eat one and sleep well, it will probably be almost ready tomorrow morning, then take one after each meal until it is fully recovered."

The apprentice...isn't he Xu Qiu?

Lin Qu's heart moved slightly, and he felt a little sweet in his heart. After confirming that Xu Qiu was going to marry him, he felt very happy every time he thought of her.

"No need to boil medicine?" Wang and Lin Guangfu focused on this.

That is indeed very convenient, otherwise the medicine will be boiled in the middle of the night, and the yard will be full of smells, and I am afraid it will wake up his mother.

"Yeah." The old doctor said, "Xu Qiu opened a clinic in the town to sell the finished medicine." Because he also heard about Xu Qiu and Lin Qu, the old doctor didn't mind giving it to Wang. Talk to Lin Guangfu more about this.

"Get some hot water for the little doll and drink it directly."

The pills are not too small. Lin Qu took a bite, and the taste was still that of traditional Chinese medicine, which was slightly improved. It was much better than drinking Chinese medicine directly.He quickly picked up the water and swallowed it, and after a few mouthfuls, he managed to swallow all the pills.

He thought in his heart that if he sold this kind of medicine, it would be more popular than boiled medicine. No one would drink medicine, and it was common to spit out half of it. His two younger brothers would drink medicine every time Coax for a long time, this kind should be very easy to sell.

It doesn't matter if the price is more expensive, as more people in the town can afford it.

Both Mrs. Wang and Lin Guangfu were not talkative, the old doctor said a few words to them, and then left with the medicine box on his back, Lin Guangfu hurriedly delivered it.

The next day, Xu Qiu learned about Lin Qu's illness at night from the old doctor, and the old doctor went to see him in the morning, and he was fine, so Xu Qiu felt relieved.He wanted to see it, but he couldn't get in because of the relationship between their family and the Lin family.

……

For the next half month, Lin Qiong was recovering from his injuries, and there was no other movement in the Lin family except for old lady Lin's scolding.

But this day, old lady Lin's scolding voice was different, Xu Qiu listened to it, it should be Lin Qiong's parents who mentioned their marriage.Then it seemed that Gu Chengxiao came. After saying something, Mrs. Lin scolded louder. It sounds like Gu Chengxiao came to propose marriage?

This is also normal, although Lin Qiong and Gu Chengxiao concealed it a bit at the beginning, but they did have a good impression of each other, and they also went through the incident of being rescued from the water. At that time, Xu Qiu said that they had a relationship. It's as simple as falling into the water and being rescued.

If Lin Qiong didn't marry Gu Chengxiao, she would have no reputation at all.

According to Gu Chengxiao's temperament, no matter whether he feels relieved or not, he will take responsibility.

Gu Chengxiao also came to Lin's house once before, obviously, this time he scolded him more harshly.

Lin Qiong was lying on the bed in the room, listening to his grandma's horrible words, she wanted to cover her ears, that is the future emperor!He yelled loudly: "Grandma, grandma, come in!"

Hearing the voice of the good grandson, Mrs. Lin gave Gu Chengxiao a hard look, and then walked inside.
